Chapter 378: Education (3)
Regarding the selection of outstanding students to spread new learning and develop education in various counties, Guo Bin was inspired by the teaching support of later generations, but it was adapted to the actual situation of Yingchuan County at present. With the support of the Yingyin Xun clan and the Changshe Zhong clan, and now Chen Qun, the grandson of the Chen family in Xu County, has been brought in, plus his Yangzhai Guo family, it can be said that the most powerful families in Yingchuan County have joined his Guo Bin group.
With the support of these wealthy families, the popularization of compulsory education and the selection of officials must have gone quite smoothly, even if there are a few mischievous people, there is resistance to the popularization of new learning, and they can also use strong means to suppress it. In today's Guo Bin's view, surviving in troubled times does not seem to be as difficult as originally thought, and the famous Yuan Shao, Yuan Shu, Cao Cao, Sun Quan, and Liu Bei in later generations are not in his eyes now. Perhaps because it is close, the Son of Heaven Liu Hong, the general He Jin, the crown prince Liu Bian, the prince Liu Xie, and even Dong Zhuo and others are not very good in Guo Bin's eyes.
In Guo Bin's view, now, and even for a long time to come, his biggest enemy is stubborn tradition and imprisoned thoughts. Because with the improvement of his status and strength, Guo Bin's perspective on the problem has also changed, and his goal is to prevent the occurrence of the five chaos in history and preserve the living space of the Han people in the world.
However, if we want to truly solve this problem, we must completely dismantle the situation of the late Han Dynasty competing for hegemony, and if we want to dismantle this situation, we need to change the status quo of the wealthy families entrenched in the local area and controlling politics. The election of agents by wealthy families to engage in political speculation can be regarded as a major feature of this era. In history, Liu Bei raised troops to exterminate the Yellow Turban Army in Zhuo County because of Zhang Fei's wealth and the support of Zhang Shiping, Su Shuang and others; Cao Cao raised troops in Chenliu because of the financial support of his family and Chen Liuhao's Weizi.
The formation of this state of affairs is fundamentally inseparable from the manor economic model of this time, which made the local wealthy families increasingly powerful, and they were able to organize a certain number of armies, and also had the ability to use their influence on local politics to obtain blades, armor, and even privately build blades and even mint coins from the increasingly lax government treasury. Therefore, if Guo Bin wanted to completely solve this problem, he had to fundamentally change the structure of the entire society in the late Han Dynasty and change the manor economic model based on agriculture.
Because of this manor economic model, to a certain extent, there is also the shadow of the pre-Qin feudal system. Therefore, Guo Bin believes that in order to break this economic model, there must be two means, one is economic, and the other is cultural customs. Economically, it is necessary to vigorously develop industry and commerce and try our best to reduce the proportion of agriculture in the entire economy, which is the most fundamental and important measure. In terms of culture and customs, it is necessary to change customs, improve the literacy rate and understanding level of ordinary people, and change the original state of life in which they face the loess all day long.
Only when the productive forces develop to a certain level can the proportion of the agricultural population in the total population of society be reduced, and only when more people break away from the restrictions of land and turn to the side of the imperial court and become the people of the household, will the control of the wealthy landlords over the people be weakened, the balance of power between the government and the wealthy landlords will be completely reversed, and people's vision will be broadened and their living standards will be able to
Only by improving the economic form can the economic form be gradually transformed, and finally people's living style can also undergo qualitative changes.
However, if we want to achieve sustainable development of productivity, it is essential to have education. Because Guo Bin is only a high school graduate after all, his knowledge is very limited, it can be said that he can indeed put forward strategic guiding opinions on the progress of science and technology, but if he is allowed to participate in specific scientific research projects, he will not do better than an ordinary researcher at this time, because his knowledge reserve has been basically exhausted.
For example, he knew that the steam engine was inspired by Watt's sight of a boiling teapot, but he did not know the design drawings of the steam engine, nor did he have the ability to design it himself; He knew that the internal combustion engine was a machine that burned fuel inside the machine and converted the heat energy released by it directly into power, but he did not know how to make an internal combustion engine; He knew that the internal combustion engine burned gasoline or diesel, and that gasoline and diesel were refined from petroleum, but he did not know the specific process of refining.
Guo Bin understands that it is wishful thinking to come up with design drawings like God and bring high-tech products from the 21st century to the Han Dynasty. In order to achieve sustained development of productive forces, the most fundamental thing is to train batch after batch of educated young people who understand science through the establishment of the system, and mobilize the forces of the whole society to promote the progress of science and technology. The process of Ma Jun's invention of the sewing machine is an excellent example. At the beginning, Guo Bin put forward an idea, and then Ma Jun figured out the principle, turned it into reality through repeated tests, and achieved mass production.
It wasn't until a few years later that Chen Qun, who had long since retired from the seat of Zaifu and was living at home for a long time, was silent for a long time when asked by a newspaper reporter about this small-scale meeting, and said the following words: "The lord's eyes are like torches, he is strategic, and his actions are often light. When it comes to major matters of people's livelihood, he is always cautious and cautious. At that time, I was sixteen years old, but the earnest teachings of the lord and several gentlemen were still in my ears. It was at this meeting that the lord said: 'No matter how poor you are, you can't be poor in education, and no matter how hard you are, you can't be miserable for children'. The lord also said that education and education reform are major matters that have a bearing on the national economy and the people's livelihood and the rise or fall of the nation, and education absolutely cannot be used as a means of making profits. At that time, I couldn't fully understand this sentence, and it wasn't until more than ten years later, when I was also in charge, that I could truly understand the deep meaning of the lord's words. ”
The reporter described the scene of the interview as follows: "When it comes to Taizu, the old man who has been in charge of the center for more than 20 years trembles uncontrollably, and the wrinkled face full of stories of dedication to the whole country and the nation also blooms with a rare youthful luster, and the eyes that were originally muddy but shining with wisdom and brilliance are filled with tears like a young man. ”
However, at the beginning, because in front of Chen Qun, Guo Bin did not say too clearly and bluntly about the establishment of county schools in various places. County schools were established in each county, and most of the sites were manors or villas donated by local wealthy families. For the wealthy families, this is not only a way to promote merit and show influence in the local area, but also a means to support the policies of the county, curry favor with Guo Bin, and show loyalty, so the wealthy families are quite active in this matter. There are always a few wealthy families in a county, this one donates a village, that one donates a field, and then there are donates a shop and industry, and the students in the county school have food and clothing.
In the county schools
In today's acquaintance society, especially Chinese pay special attention to the friendship of their hometowns, and make a little contribution to the schooling of school-age children in the county, which is also a very happy thing for the wealthy families of poetry and book heirlooms, after all, people love a good reputation.
Guo Bin instructed that all newly established county schools should erect a stone tablet at the entrance of the school, on which the donations of various wealthy families would be recorded in detail and detailed, and every time a new student entered the school, students should be organized to learn to read. Reading has always been the simplest and rude way for a person to change his fate and get ahead, especially after the implementation of the imperial examination system, no one knows which child from a poor family can enter high school and return to his hometown. Now Guo Bin's approach is similar, with his current status, although he cannot set up outstanding students as officials like the Son of Heaven in later generations, he can recruit students with excellent character and learning as officials through the newly implemented official selection system of Yingchuan County, and even recruit them into the Yangzhai County Ya and even the Yingchuan County Shoufu to become the subordinate officials of the Yingchuan County Shoufu or Yangzhai County Order, and have since entered the official career.
This kind of "official selection system" is certainly not worth much compared with the mature imperial examination system in later generations, but it is much fairer and more advanced than the inspection system that is commonly used today. became a clerk and ate public meals, which is a great opportunity for an ordinary person, and it can indeed be regarded as a "master".
In the officialdom, it has always been important to pay attention to relationships such as fellow villagers and classmates, and the so-called ascension of a chicken dog to heaven is quite ironic, but it is also the norm at this time. For example, Zhu Jun was elected as a Zhonglang general and led the army to exterminate the Yellow Turban Army, so he recommended his fellow villager Sun Jian as a subordinate officer; Guo Bin had to be appointed as the county guard of Yingchuan, so he had to recruit his friends and fellow villagers Xi Zhicai, Xun Yu, and Xu Shu as his subordinates; Huangfu Song led the army to suppress the Yellow Turban Rebellion, and also recruited fellow villager Yan Zhong as a staff member. Therefore, helping one's fellow villagers is regarded as a great virtue by the people of the world at this time, on the contrary, if they do not help their fellow villagers, they will naturally be said to be ruthless and unrighteous.
Nowadays, most of the wealthy families in Yingchuan County have followed Guo Bin to participate in the construction of the three cities outside the Saiwai, so everyone has also gained more shares in the three cities outside the Saiwai and has their own industries in the city. The astonishing wealth creation ability of the three cities outside the Saiwai made the Yingchuan wealthy families who "invested" in the year make a lot of money, where will they put a mere courtyard or a field or shop in their eyes? Moreover, at present, the officials in Yingchuan County are all selected from these students, and these students are all potential stocks, so spending a little money in advance to marry them is exactly the wish of the wealthy families from all over the world, and even some wealthy families secretly sigh in their hearts that Guo Bin will be a man.
Think about it, when these students have become officials in various counties, this native will also bow their heads and not look up in the future, who doesn't need people? If the family has donated property to support the construction of the county school, it can be regarded as a grace to educate these students, and it is difficult to talk about what happens? Moreover, Guo Bin made a badge engraved with his family's surname for each of the donors, and took it all over Yingchuan County. This badge gradually evolved into the badge of various families, becoming a representative of the new aristocracy, and wearing the badge gradually became a symbol of status and status.
Therefore, many people who did not donate in time at this time also made up the donation afterwards. However, even if it is a supplementary donation, whether or not a badge is issued, it has to go through a very strict and demanding examination.
